Using the latest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy, intelligently monitoring to achieve full charge in the shortest period whilst maintaining battery longevity and health. The SmartSolar charge controller will recharge a severely depleted battery with a voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently damaged MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking By real time monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every last amp of available power is used from your panels, and diverted for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky cloudy, and light intensity is changing. Remote Monitoring and Control Remotely control and monitor your SmartSolar MPPT charger by pairing it with your smartphone or other device via the VictronConnect App. If your installation is connected to the internet via a GX device, the Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) gives you access to your MPPT at anytime, anywhere in the world; both VictronConnect and VRM are free to access. For installations with no internet connection nearby - you may be able to monitor your MPPT by connecting the  GlobalLink 520. Load output The intelligent Load output function prevents running batteries 'flat'. You can configure the voltage at which SmartSolar disconnects a load -thus preventing excessive drain on your battery. The intelligent SmartSolar will attempt a 100% recharge every day. If it can't - during periods of poor conditions - it raises the disconnect voltage, daily, until it achieves a full charge. We call this feature BatteryLife because it maintains the health and longevity.  SCC075015060R   Double Entry Solar Cable Roof Gland  BLACK / RED 6mm2 Cable for Solar Panel to MPPT or MPPT to battery 50amp Rating 6mm2 50amp.
